Tyre edge placed machine and localization method
The present invention relates to the tyre edge placed machine, also relate to the method for using described machine.
More and more higher during running car to the tire requirement, no matter but which kind of requirement, tyre edge must be accurately positioned in it and install on the rim bearing.Tyre bead is clamped in installs on the rim bearing more and more importantly, the installation of tire on its wheel rim is also more and more difficult, also is like this even use fitting machine.Because fitting operation is inaccurate, usually cause the surface of bead seats and rim bearing and not exclusively applying.These defective fitting operations can cause tyre bead to come off.
For the mounted tyre assembly that its tyre bead is accurately located consigns to the automaker, Japanese publication 64/03683 discloses a kind of tyre edge localization method, it pressurizes on airtyred two side and tyre bead is separated with seat with rim flange, remove the pressure on the two side then, this moment, the air pressure inside of tire made tyre bead from new accurately location.The device that is used for applying this pressure comprises two annulus or two rollers of making circular movement on the tire two side that place the tire both sides.
This device can or be to position effectively leaving the tire that the same radial distance of pivot center has maximum axial width the tyre edge of same size at least.But since existing tire and wheel exist multiple size, size number also constantly increase, thereby the also different rigidity of sidewall that cause of the employed structure of described size are also different, so existing apparatus can't be used for making the mounted assembly of referable to maker rationally, economically.
In order to overcome above-mentioned shortcoming, the principle of pressurizeing on the airtyred two side that is applied in of the present invention is characterised in that the machine that this tyre edge is accurately positioned on its wheel rim, this machine comprises: two plates, one on top, one in the bottom, have at least on each plate two diameter differences, can axially movable independently coaxial annulus; And at first from all upper and lower annulus, distribute according to the size of the tire of pending assembly and to select two suitable annulus of upper plate and lower plate, secondly regulate the device of these two axial distances between the selected annulus on the two side that affacts this tire, this distance must be enough to apply predetermined pressure on described two side.
" axially " refers to the common direction of the axis of each cylindrical ring, the axis direction of just pending assembly.
Selection, control apparatus at first are the means of identification of pending assembly.These devices can be to discern with human eye, but also can be on the tire or tire and/or the wheel rim in-to-in coding reading device of decoding maybe can discern the device of size.
This device is preferably a central processing controller.The device of this processing data streams read compares the data that receive and the predefined storing execution data of this device.These predefined data can be determined the annulus of required selection and the axial distance between the annulus up and down of required maintenance according to pending size especially.This central process unit also comprises the selected annulus of the may command relatively device of the registration device of other annulus and the device of regulating the axial distance between the selected annulus.
Machine of the present invention preferably also comprises the device of sending, take away pending assembly to, described assembly on described device, carry out pre-centering and with one be used for to this assembly carry out in the selected annulus centering of the device relative two of clamping.
The inventive method of one airtyred tyre bead accurately being located with said apparatus is characterised in that:
-discern pending assembly,
-selected annulus up and down and being used for to the distance between two annulus of the two side pressurization of the tire of this assembly,
-to send this assembly to and carry out centering and its pivot center and the selected common axis line of annulus are up and down overlapped, the wheel face of the tire of described assembly and/wheel is held into unsettled
-top annulus axial restraint, the bottom annulus moves axially, thereby pressurizes the schedule time on the two side of this tire,
-annulus separately up and down places this assembly on the outlet platform and takes this assembly away.
Machine of the present invention can be selected the different annulus up and down of diameter, sidewall or tyre bead that the tire of pending assembly is worked as in this selection are not useful on height and/or cross sectional shape and/or rigidity simultaneously for example, but this selection relates generally to two identical annulus of diameter.
From can clearlyer finding out the features and advantages of the present invention the following explanation to non-limiting, the exemplary embodiments of apparatus of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is the front elevation of this device,
Fig. 2 is the lateral plan of same device,
Fig. 3 is illustrated in and is used for the device of this assembly of clamping before the compression-side wall,
Fig. 4 locks these annulus after being illustrated in selected suitable annulus group.
Be inflated to after tire is contained on its wheel rim greater than its by maker fixed nominal air pressure an air pressure and form assembly E.Described assembly E can go up parallel motion in a roller conveyor (1), and these rollers are driven by an asynchronous motor (9).This belt conveyor (1) can be equipped with the registration device that is made of two pivoted arms that driven by controlled pneumatic piston cylinder spare, and this device makes this assembly align in the vertical.
Its tire has symmetrical two side in described example assembly E is discerned with a coding.This coding comprises the information of rigidity of the two side of the designation that characterizes this assembly and this tire, no matter this rigidity is structural or pneumatic property.In institute's example, this coding that is made of 6 figure places is read by the operator.But obviously also can use any other label and label reading system: reflected light is converted to electric signal and reads bar code information with (laser or infrared ray) scanning reader; Add paramagnetic material in the tire or on the tire and put into original institute each part of materials used is detected in magnetic field with read head magnetic; At the concavo-convex marking of using under the illumination on the light perception lower tire side wall; But also self-measuring (tire, wheel) diameter and/width and so on size and discern this assembly.
Coding sends to able to programme as signal and by the treater of appropriate software programming or based on the controller U (not shown) of microprocessor, this treater with relevant three groups up and down the storage data of annulus A, B, C compare the back is used for regulating electromagnetic valve from the pneumatic distributing box with electromagnetic piston cylinder spare (3) of 6 of vertical displacement of selected A group annulus (4) to control and send electric signal.In fact, drive by three the piston cylinder spares (3) that are equally distributed on the circumference regardless of each annulus (4) that is top or bottom.The displacement of 2 annulus (4) of the selected A group of 4 annulus longitudinal travels of other two groups of B and C is subjected to the guiding of guiding device relatively, and this guiding device is sphero-cylindrical lens (5) in institute's example.
Thereby treater U is defined as accurately compressing the two side of tire of pending assembly selected a group two annulus up and down according to the coding that is received." A organizes annulus " refers to one group of annulus that two diameters of lower plate and upper plate are identical, measures the axial distance between two annulus up and down then, no matter which group these two annulus belong to.
When proper A group annulus (4) after the height of other two groups of annulus longitudinal travels is enough to have only these two annulus (4) just can act on the sidewall of tire relatively, its periphery is provided with lockhole (6) all annulus (Fig. 4) with (being distributed in 3 on the circumference) in the patchhole (6) one group of pneumatic piston cylinder spare (7) locking.Magnetic detector (8) is used for checking whether annulus locks.
The Displacement system (3) of selected annulus (4) and guiding device (5) and a plate (10) fuse, be equipped with on it 3 top annulus (4 ') upper plate (10 ') but axial adjustment.The axial distance that is moved when the sidewall of compressed tires by the lower plate that 3 bottom annulus (4 ") are housed thereon (10 ") is constant, therefore regulates upper plate (10 ') and can obtain preset distance between two annulus.With one and one pitch is the mobile upper plate of screw rod (12) bonded assembly three phase asynchronous motor (11) of 5mm, and this screw rod and a nut (13) mesh and removable upper plate (10 ').Exporting the frequency converter of controlling with one by the simulation of this controller powers to this electrical motor (11).One absolute encoder (14) is checked the position of upper plate (10 ') all the time.Two sensors (15) is used for the displacement of confinement plate/circle ring part, and this plate/circle ring part is fixing with a drg (16) behind the location.
In a single day upper plate (10 ') and selected top annulus put in place, and assembly E is vertical i.e. this assembly pre-centering on the direct of travel on the roller conveyor (1).Assembly E at an electro-optical tubes (17) thus preceding by writing down the time that this electro-optical tubes is interrupted.According to the fore-and-aft distance required time between the common vertical axis of covering electro-optical tubes (17) and annulus (4 ') and (4 ") under the constant transfer rate, controller U calculate the remainder of before electro-optical tubes, passing through fully guide's time and to driving belt conveyor (1) thus the electrical motor of roller send the stall when the dead in line of the axis of assembly E and two annulus of instruction electrical motor.
Cause the accurate centering of complete matching of the axis X X ' of the pivot center of assembly E and top annulus (4 ') and bottom annulus (4 ") to realize by the ancillary equipment of the unsettled clamping of a handle component E (Fig. 3).This ancillary equipment or centering anchor clamps (P) comprise two strut members (21) that two centering rollers (22) are respectively arranged on it by the driving of two pneumatic piston cylinder spares (20).One odontoid belt (23) connects these two strut members (21) and the axis that forces roller (22) to be symmetrical in two annulus moves horizontally.Four rolling (22) tightly clamp assemblies E wheel face and make it unsettled.Be used for detecting the detector (24) of the existence of this assembly on each centering roller (22) in addition: if the incomplete centering of described assembly, one or more detectors (24) are not worked and this machine stops.
Controller U controls following operation then, promptly reduce the part of roller conveyor (1), described part is positioned at the below of assembly E, so that axially raise the parts that are made of lower plate (10 ") and these annulus (4 "), the strut member (30) that rotates belt conveyor (1) with piston cylinder spare (31) of returning of described part is realized.This path freedom thereby assembly E puts in place uses the hydraulic piston cylinder spare of being sent to by a local center spare (illustrating) (40) axially to raise to be equipped with especially on it lower plate (10 ") of selected bottom annulus (4 ") then, comprises that one drives a hydraulic pressure pump motor.The processing of assembly E is all raise lower plate (10 ") no matter run into which type of resistance, up to it against this piston cylinder spare.In fact, the bottom annulus (4 ") come in contact with the tire lower sides; support tire/wheel/roll wheel assembly; move axially this assembly up to reaching by the distance between two annulus (4) of controller (2) control, this moves axially owing to roller (22) can move axially along its vertical axis becomes possibility.The most handy pressure converter is measured the pressure that becomes along with the lower tire side wall resistance to compression pression of this propelling unit, and this resistance is that the air pressure inside by described tire causes.But thereby the soft tire of detection components E and being rejected.
The obvious available hand shift of above-mentioned machine: the advance and retreat of annulus, the locking of annulus and open, the operation of belt conveyor, it opens and closes, the lifting of centering, lifting and the lower plate of upper plate all can be controlled by the operator.This is equally applicable to the demonstration of distance between the annulus of tire compression back, and moving axially also that upper plate is required can be undertaken by the operator.
Obviously, treated assembly is in case eject the back and be reversed so that get back to initial condition in all above-mentioned processing operations that begin to handle next assembly front assembly E.If handle the identical tyre assembly of a succession of its heading code, this localization machine can keep all selected adjusting operations.
